Hi!

I need to know a few things about the gut-buster ball shot.
1. When it is shot does it hit first and then skid? Before it even skids
does it take out titans or praetorian shields? Or must it skid to do this?

Hits and skids and takes all the shields out as it moves through. It may
take out shields on the hit or the skid, doesn't matter really the end
result is the same it knocks ALL shields down.

2. If the ball skids over a knight does it get its special save if the ball
has skid into its shield area? The rules say automatic hit and I don't think
a shield is going to stop a ball the size of a tank (which is about the same
size as a knight).

It automatically hits and the knight gets his unmodified save. It doesn't
stop the ball it just keeps the knight from getting nailed as he jumps
aside.

My last question deals with pinning of knights. Can they only be pinned by
superheavies, knights, and titan classes? Or can vehicles pin them as well?
Also we have no rules about swarm pinning--for example 5 ork boyz stands
swarm a landraider or knight. The landraider or knight can just move away.
There must be some house rule that someone uses.

According to present rules only knights, super heavies and
praetorians/titans pin a knight. Swarming or not it doesn't matter thay cant
pin the knight since they are physically too small, regardless of number.
